Description
Two construction workers and a concrete mixer, Mount Wilson. Construction of a large water reservoir is underway. The construction worker on the left is standing on a wooden platform; the worker on the right is holding a wheelbarrow to catch wet concrete from the mixer's spout. Several shovels are on the ground in the surrounding area. Trees are in the background, behind the mixer.
